Riza Santos as Miss World Canada

Parang may nagbago sa mukha ni Riza Santos, ang dating Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) housemate na naging contract star ng Viva Films pero biglang nag-babu sa Pilipinas.

Sumali si Riza sa Miss Canada at siya ang nag-win ng Miss World-Canada title. Ang ibig sabihin, si Riza ang pambato ng Canada sa Miss World pageant.

Naging cover girl noon si Riza ng FHM Philippines pero hindi naman yata ito nakaapekto sa pagsali niya sa beauty contest sa Canada dahil nag-win pa siya ng beauty title.

’Yun nga lang, parang may nagbago sa kanyang face dahil iba na ang hitsura niya kesa noong nag-aartista pa lamang siya sa Pilipinas.

Pumayat lang ba si Riza o meron siyang dapat ipagpasalamat sa doktor? Hindi baguhan si Riza sa pagsali sa mga beauty contests dahil nag-join na rin siya noon sa Miss Earth pageant.

Siya ang nag-represent sa Canada pero mga special awards lamang ang kanyang natanggap.

Na-link noon si Riza kay Mark Bautista pero idinenay niya na nagkaroon sila ng relasyon ng singer-actor.

Ewan ko lang kung aaminin ni Mark na na-hurt siya sa ginawang pagde-deny ni Riza sa kanilang special friendship.

Ibig sabihin, dalawang Pinay ang maglalaban sa Miss World contest na gaganapin sa London sa Nov. 8.

Si Riza ang isang Pinay at naghahanap pa si Cory Quirino sa magiging representative ng ating bansa sa Miss World.

Two months from now, malalaman natin ang mapalad na babae na makakalaban ni Riza sa Miss World contest dahil sa July 30 ang coronation night ng Miss World-Philippines.

Si Cory na ang may hawak ng franchise ng Miss World contest sa Pilipinas dahil hindi na nag-renew ng kontrata sa Bb. Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BPCI) si Julia Morley, ang big boss ng Miss World Organization.

Runner-up si Ruffa Gutierrez sa Miss World contest noong 1993 at kahit hindi na hawak ng BPCI ang beauty contest ng Miss World Organization, marami ang umaasa na siya ang kukunin na host ng pageant night ng Miss World-Philippines sa July 30.

Mapapanood sa GMA 7 ang pageant night ng Miss World-Philippines at kahit identified si Ruffa sa TV5, pinapayagan siya na lumabas sa ibang TV network.

Ang title ng movie nina Charice at Salma ay Here Comes The Boom, directed by Frank Coraci, ang nagdirek din ng Click at The Wedding Singer.

Kaibigan Lang Lyrics and Music Video

Here’s the lyrics of Kaibigan Lang by Young JV:

Hindi mo man sabihin
Aking napapansin
Na ika’y sa’kin may pagtingin

Ang iyong bawat galaw
Kapag sumasayaw
Parang ayaw nang bumitaw

REFRAIN:
Oooh…
Sasabihin ko na ba?
Oooh…
Baka ikaw ay magtaka
Oooh…
Bahala na
Oooh…
Aaminin ko na
Kaibigan lang (4x)

Ngayong alam mo na
Ang nasa puso ko
Sana’y walang magbago

Ating pagkakaibigan
Ay magpatuloy pa
Sa hirap man o ginhawa

(REPEAT REFRAIN)
Kaibigan lang (4x)

Gusto kang makasama
Mula gabi hanggang umaga
Oh girl ang ganda mo talaga
At ika’y sa’kin ay mahalaga

Ngunit sana’y maunawaan
Ang tunay ko ng nararamdaman
Kay tagal ko ring pinag-isipan
At para sa’kin tayo’y magkaibigan lang

Kaibigan lang (8x)
Kaibigan lang (Para sa’kin ikaw lang ay) (6x)
Kaibigan lang (Sorry na) (2x)

Sarah Geronimo’s All-Filipino Album

Filipino music can use all the help it can get in these dire times so I am happy to note that Sarah Geronimo’s latest album, One Heart is made up of old and new works by local composers. Although she made her mark with Forever’s Not Enough by Vehnee Saturno seven years ago, Sarah did fall prey to the lure of foreign covers in her later recordings, as in I Wanna Know What Love Is and Right Here Waiting plus those themes from her blockbuster movies, like A Very Special Love and You Changed My Life In A Moment.

So it truly gladdens the heart that, Sarah, who is one of the country’s top hitmakers today has gone back, not only to Saturno songs but to other original Filipino compositions as well. Maybe because there is something uniquely Filipino about our music that although we are guilty of often preferring what is selling in the U.S. of A., we also hold on like mad to songs that touch the Filipino soul. That is why Sarah’s biggest seller to date, is still Forever’s Not Enough and it is the one hit she will always be identified with all her life. Let us see if fans will find lots of the same in the songs of One Heart.

Vehnee, who also did Be My Lady for Martin Nievera, Isang Lahi for Regine Velasquez, Sana Kahit Minsan for Ariel Rivera, Only Me And You for Donna Cruz and other hits, dominates Sarah’s line-up. He wrote and produced six songs, all done in his sure hit style. These include the first two single releases, Sino Nga Ba Siya and Kung Siya Ang Mahal and the title cut, One Heart. There are also the Vehnee hits covers, Nag-iisang Ikaw, first recorded by Louie Heredia and Bakit Pa Ba? that he composed for Jay R and then there is the new showstopping original Within that singing contestants will surely adore.

I am tempted to say I am sad that there is one non-OPM entry in the CD. This is bonus track, Fallin’, the Marvin Hamlish/ Carol Bayer song from the musical They’re Playing Our Song. But it’s a nice tune and was used as the theme of the movie Catch Me… I’m In Love, which starred Sarah and Gerard Anderson. So let us forgive that and check out the other Fallin’, that Sarah sings beautifully. This one was written and was originally a hit by Janno Gibbs who, I must add, is a very good composer and should write more songs.

Also included in One Heart are Sa Isip Ko, a cover of the Agot Isidro hit composed by Dennis Garcia of Hotdog; If You Could Read My Mind by Christian Martinez; I Miss You by Louie Ocampo; Bata, a duet with Kean Cipriano of CallaLily; More Than You’d Believe, written and produced by Tito Cayamanda; Handang Umibig Muli written and produced by Marcus Davis; and Ikaw, a duet with Concert King Martin Nievera of the Louie Ocampo/George Canseco classic.

Speaking of Martin, he and Sarah are getting ready to bring their hugely successful What Love Is show on tour around the country and abroad. First stops here will be at the Central Philippine University in Iloilo City on July 15 followed by the Waterfront Hotel in Lahug, Cebu City on July 15. Now for those who want something that happens sooner, you can catch Sarah perform songs from One Heart and her other hits at the Glorietta in Makati on the afternoon of Sunday May 22.

And speaking of Dennis Garcia and the Hotdogs and a big boost for OPM, the Manila Sound band’s reunion concert last Monday evening at the Dusit Ballroom turned out to be the hot event of the year. Not only because our bachelor President came with a date; not only because the hall was packed; not only because Dennis looked well and played again after many years; but also because, Hotdogs music — think Pers Lab, Panaginip, Ikaw Ang Miss Universe Ng Buhay Ko, Bongga Ka Day, and other songs — is still as fresh and enjoyable after nearly 40 years. Congratulations guys. Maybe it is about time for a new album.

Kris Aquino masaya sa pagpapapayat ni Joshua

Noong Linggo ay kasama ni Kris Aqui­no ang kanyang panganay na anak na si Joshua sa proyekto ng De­partment of Health na ehersisyong pang­kalusugan para sa lahat. Ginanap ito sa Quezon Memorial Circle. Ilang govern­ment officials din ang sumuporta sa nasabing programa sa pangu­nguna ni Presidente Noynoy Aquino.

Sobrang proud ni Kris kay Josh dahil nakasali ito sa isang biking activity sa nasabing event. “Si Josh, nagba-bike na ngayon, eh hindi naman ako maru­nong mag-bike so nakakahiya naman na na­ka-training wheels ako,” natatawang bu­ngad ni Kris.

Ang pagba-bike ang pinakabagong kinahihiligan ngayon ni Josh para mapanatiling malusog ang pangangatawan nito.

“Kasi nandoon siya sa severely obese level. So, ngayon at least nag-lose na siya ng ten pounds. Four times a week talaga nagba-bike, three times nagko-core, something cross training, and swimming. So three different physical activities para pumayat, happy talaga at good na nag-e-enjoy siya talaga,” kuwento pa ni Kris.

Sharon Cuneta on Bigating Pinoy: The Biggest Loser

Sharon Cuneta finally speaks up on her own fight against obesity tonight in the primer for her upcoming ABS-CBN reality show The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition.

In a TV interview, Sharon will share the physical and emotional pains of people who are regarded by society as fat, obese and heavy.

“Unfortunately, society judges you according to your physical appearance. It’s not really according to your abilities and your talents. Minsan kahit it’s very unfair, it’s a reality,” she explained.

But she is not the only one opening up on Sunday’s TV special, titled Bigating Pinoy: The Biggest Loser Primer. To prove that obesity is a serious problem in the country that should be addressed, the primer will also show case studies featuring six “heavy” Pinoys.

The list includes seven-year-old Karl Camo of Goin’ Bulilit. While people find him cuddly and cute, he is also in a crucial state of child obesity. Danica, 14, has to deal with greater pressure growing up because of her weight. Twenty-two-year-old Alvin, on the other hand, has been rejected over and over during job applications.

There is also Lorie, 33, who can’t bear a child because of excessive fat in her body. Forty-year-old Rowena, meanwhile, is a mom but can’t attend her children’s graduation in fear that they will be teased by their classmates because of her.

Get to meet Reinnier, who at 25 already has a memorial plan due to the health risks of his obesity.If you ask Sharon, she believes that there is still hope for all of them to improve their lives. That is if they begin taking care of their health like her. She said that The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition can be a source of inspiration to people like them, and even to those who are perfectly fit and healthy.

Bigating Pinoy: The Biggest Loser Primer airs after Pilipinas Got Talent.

Derek Ramsay will co-host the show.

Toni Gonzaga Explains Snubbing Issue

Nagpaliwanag na si Toni Gonzaga sa hindi niya pagsipot sa awarding ceremony ng Guillermo Mendoza Memorial Scholarship Foundation last Tuesday kung saan ay hinirang siya bilang princess of Philippine movies.

Nagkaroon kasi ng speculations na baka may tampo si Toni sa GMMSF dahil nga hindi siya ang napiling box-office oueen para sa pelikulang My Amnesia Girl kundi si Ai-Ai de las Alas for Tanging Ina, Last na ’To.

“Hindi naman! Naku naman po, hindi naman po totoo iyan,” paulit-ulit na paglilinaw ni Toni sa VTR interview niya for SNN.

“May awards night lang po na hindi ako nakakadalo dahil meron po tayong prior commitment.

“Siguro nagkataon lang na may issue or nasabay lang kami na may issue kaya hindi nakarating, pero other than that, wala naman po.”

In fact, very thankful nga raw siya sa parangal na ibinigay sa kanya ng GMMSF.

“Siyempre nagpapasalamat tayo, more than anything else siguro ang pagpapasalamat ko talaga ay sa Star Cinema, sa lahat ng tao na tumangkilik sa pelikulang My Amnesia Girl noong November, kasi kahit isang buwan lang kami, we’re able to receive that kind of reception sa mga tao,” she said.

Gerald Anderson says he wants to be professional with his leading ladies

Gerald Anderson proved that he has what it takes to be the next leading man with his convincing portrayal in the film Catch Me… I’m In Love, where he starred opposite Sarah Geronimo. Gerald earned positive feedback from viewers and critics alike for the movie. “Siyempre sobrang masaya na ganun ang tingin nila. Mas nai-inspire akong magtrabaho pa dahil sa lahat ng success na nangyayari,” he beamed.

However, many wondered that in spite of their evident chemistry and having become friends when they did the movie, the two never exchanged contact numbers. Gerald justified that they both wanted to be professional and continued that he and Sarah always talk whenever they bump into each other. Besides, Gerald said that it was their first time to work together and he is happy that he became friends with the Pop Princess.

When Push.com.ph asked Gerald if his reluctance was the result of what happened to him and former leading lady Kim Chiu, he replied, “’Di naman. Para sa akin trabaho, eh. Gusto kong maging professional. Ayokong magkailangan sa leading ladies ko. Kumbaga ‘yung priority ko ‘yung maging kaibigan ko ‘yung leading lady ko. Kilalanin ko muna. Hindi naman [dahil] leading lady ko liligawan ko na. Parang ang pangit naman no’n.”

Gerald also clarified that he is currently single but happy because of his successful career. He added that he is not closing his doors on a possible love-life but it will come at the proper time for it.

The actor also said that he and Kim are still very good friends. Gerald added that he is very thankful that they were able to preserve the friendship in spite of the controversies. “Siyempre maganda [ang maging friends pa rin kami]. ‘Yun talaga ang habol namin ni Kim, eh.”

While Gerald confirmed that he and Kim recently had dinner together, he did not go into details. “Basta tapos na ‘yon sinagot ko na ‘yon. Hindi siya secret dinner. It’s a friendly dinner para sa birthday niya,” he said.

He also said that he is open to working with Bea Alonzo, who was previously romantically linked to him. “Kung maganda ‘yung proyekto bakit hindi? Trabaho din ‘yon,” he reasoned and added that he is not bothered if it would result to controversies because it is bound to happen regardless who his leading lady is.

Gerald Anderson Misses Jewel Mische

Last Saturday ay inamin ni Kim Chiu sa “E-Live” na nagkaroon na ng closure ang naging relasyon nila ni Gerald Anderson matapos ang kanilang pag-uusap sa America kamakailan. Napabalitang nagkaroon ng intimate dinner date ang dalawa sa U.S. nang mag-celebrate ng birthday si Kim doon.

Ayon naman kay Gerald ay open pa rin naman siya sa possibility na makasama si Kim sa kanyang mga projects. “Yung working status namin hindi closed book yun at love team namin, hindi pa sarado yun,” bungad ni Gerald.

Samantala, ang bagong napapabalita ngayon ay madalas daw na nakikitang magka-date sina Gerald at ang dating lady niya sa “Buhawi Jack” na si Jewel Mische. “Hindi kami nagkikita, nakaka-miss nga siya actually. Wala akong nililigawan ngayon. Kung sino man ang ligawan ko kawawa rin, kasi di ko mabigyan ng oras. Sa ngayon focus muna ako sa work,” paglilinaw pa ng binata.

Kaabang-abang naman daw ang bagong project na gagawin ni Gerald ngayon. “Ibang leading lady, ibang story. Yung role ko kakaiba so ang daming dapat abangan sa show na ito,” pagtatapos pa ng aktor.

Angelica Panganiban Game na Game kay Piolo Pascual

Taong 2004 nang huling magkatambal sina Piolo Pascual at Angelica Panganiban sa teleser­yeng Mangarap Ka sa Kapamilya Network. Pagkatapos ng pitong taon ay muling magsasama ang dalawa sa isang pelikula na gagawin ni Direk Mae Cruz mula sa Star Cinema.

“First time namin to work with Direk Mae para sa pelikula. It’s a privilege for us. We’re so excited because bago sa amin itong tatlo. Never pa kami nagsama ni Angel sa pelikula. Never ko pa nakasama si Direk Mae,” pahayag ni Piolo.

“First time kong gagawa ng romantic comedy. Sabi ko nga ito na ’yung pinaka-challenging role na puwede nilang ibigay sa akin. Kasi super lapit niya sa personality ko, demure siya. Ayun! Sweet, mabait, polite, lahat ng positivity nasa kanya. So akung-ako talaga,” pabirong sabi naman ni Angelica.

Kamakailan ay nagkaroon na ng look test sina Angelica at Piolo para sa gagawing pelikula at naging komportable naman sila sa isa’t isa. Kitang-kita na rin ang chemistry at magandang samahan sa pagitan ng dalawa.

“Masaya kami. Ang problema namin ay kung paano kami magiging seryoso, ’yun ang challenge,” kuwento ni Piolo.

Ang balita namin ay magkakaroon ng mga daring scenes ang movie project nila. Ready na kaya silang gawin ito? “Depende, kung hihingin ng istorya,” sagot ni Piolo.

“Hihingin iyan,” mabilis na kambiyo naman ni Angelica.

Kim Chiu puts lovelife 'on hold'

When it comes to affairs of the heart, Kim Chiu doesn’t exactly say what she truly feels. She’ll either give vague answers or divert the topic to other concerns especially if the issue has something to do with Gerald Anderson — until recently when she appeared before the members of the entertainment press for a post-birthday lunch-cum-presscon. She turned 21 last April 19.

Aside from talking about her US trip and the charity institution she chose to share her blessings with, Kim put all speculations to rest about whether she and Gerald have reconciled while they were in the US with other Kapamilya stars for the Star Magic Tour. The two were romantically linked on- and off-cam and rumored to have separated ways months ago.

“Even I was surprised when I learned about that news,” said Kim. “Yes, we went out for dinner but it wasn’t planned. Nagkita lang kami, at parang, ‘Uy ‘lika dinner tayo,’ ganun lang.”

Kim added she’s happy that they had the chance to talk and spend some time together. “With our busy schedules, it’s impossible for us to meet and talk here (in Manila). So after that dinner, it’s like everything went back to normal, we are friends again, wala ng ilangan.”

In fact, Gerald gifted her with a cookware set when she had her post-birthday celebration in the newly-built house where she and her family just recently moved into.

Is there a chance for her and Gerald to get back together again?

“Ayoko muna ng lovelife. I’m happy being single because I get to meet a lot of people. For now, I just want to explore on my own. Who knows, I might find a boyfriend next year.”

Asked if she has become choosy when it comes to finding love, Kim replied, “It’s not that I’m choosy, I’m more careful now, ayoko nang masaktan; masakit e.”

While in the US, Kim also bonded with Maja Salvador and Angelica Panganiban after their series of shows. She even posed for magazines alongside 90210 star Matt Lanter.

Meanwhile, Kim never forgets to visit one charity institution as part of her birthday celebration. Last week, she visited Grace To Be Born Shelter which takes care of unwed mothers and abandoned babies. She brought milk and other supplies for moms and children.

“Actually, we researched which charity institution that is not given enough support. Grace To Be Born receives little supply and the least visited. Naisip ko, sila na lang kasi kawawa naman sila,” offered Kim, who plans to take up business management in college.

Soon, televiewers will see Kim in the soap Binondo Girl with Xian Lim, Matteo Guidicelli and Jolo Revilla.

Pokwang Very Happy

MASAYA ngayon si Pokwang dahil natapos na ang ipinatayong dream house sa Summer Hills, Antipolo. Umabot daw sa P30 million ang kanyang nagastos at ayon kay Pokwang, kung hindi raw siya marunong magtipid habang pinagagawa ang four-storey with 8 -bedroom na bahay, baka naghihirap na siya ngayon sa kawalan ng datung.

Noong pinaplano pa lang niya ang pagpapagawa ng kanyang dream house, talagang pinaghandaan na raw niya ito financially, kasi nga, mahirap mabitin at baka hindi lang ito matapos, kaya super-tipid daw ang hitad.

Ngayon daw, nakatira na siya sa bago niyang bahay kahit hindi pa tapos ang prayer room, na ayon sa kanya, ito raw ang pinakaimportante kaya minamadali niyang matapos.

“May sarili akong kuwarto at ang anak kung angel, kung saan man siya naroroon ngayon, siguro masaya siya kasi nga nakikita niyang hindi ko siya pinabayaan,” malungkot na kuwento ni Pokwang.

Nagpapasalamat din si Pokwang sa anak niyang anghel, kasi nga, muli siyang nakabalik sa noontime show.

Isinama na siya ng ABS-CBN management sa Happy, Yipee, Yehee bilang bagong host sa segment na Kuwarta o Kahon.

Hindi naman niya inabandona ang dati niyang bahay. Pinatira niya du’n ang kanyang kapatid para makamenos sa gastos, kasi nga, mahal yatang umupa ng bahay ngayon.

Angel Locsin proud ABS-CBN turns her into 'real actress'

FINALLY, mapapanood na rin ang pelikula nina Aga Muhlach at Angel Locsin na halos one year in the making.

Entitled In The Name of Love, ito rin ang pang-18th anniversary presentation ng Star Cinema.

Pero hindi lang kina Aga at Angel umiikot ang istorya ng movie, kungdi pati na rin kay Jake Cuenca.

Very honored daw sina Aga at Angel dahil ang pelikula nila ang napili ng Star Cinema na maging handog para sa kanilang ika-18 anibersaryo.

Super-excited din sina Aga at Angel na mapanood ang kabuuan ng pelikula, na first time nilang pinagtambalan.

Bonus daw sa kanila na isang mahusay na direktor ang humawak sa kanila -- si Direk Olivia “Inang” Lamasan lang naman, huh!

Say naman ni Direk Oli-via: “I’m so proud of them. We did this movie for more than a year. Grabe ’yung pinagdaanan naming difficulties. But at the end, I’m so fulfilled and I’m so happy and proud of the performances, kung paano sila nag-evolve as actors. Ma-talino silang artista.”

Reunion movie rin nina Direk Lamasan at Aga ang In the Name of Love.

“Every time we’d see each other, we’d always talk about it. Kung kailan uli kami magkakatrabaho. Finally, eto, nagkatrabaho na uli kami. So, with this movie with Olive and the story, sabi ko perfect talaga. Not knowing na ito ang isang pelikulang sasabihin ko talaga na pinakamahirap kong ginawa -- physically, emotionally, lahat -- because of the bigness of this movie.

“I’ve done movies for Star Cinema. Ang sarap ng feeling kasi in-entust nila ang pelikulang ito na pang-anniversary pa nila. It makes you special talaga dahil pelikula namin nina Angel at Jake ang napili nilang ipa-labas sa publiko,” mahabang kuwento ni Aga.

Sa panig naman ni Angel, aniya: “Honestly, after doing this movie, pakiramdam ko nasa umpisa pa lang ako. Feeling ko nasa kinder level ako, parang ang dami ko pang bagay na dapat matutunan. Nakaka-inspire palang magtrabaho kung ang makakasama mo ay sina Direk Olivie, Mr. Aga Mu-lach na ang gagaling sa craft nila. Nakaka-challenge. Du’n papasok ‘yung humility, na wala pa pala ako sa kalingkingan nila. Kaya ginagawa ko ‘yung da best ko. Nu’ng diniscuss nila sa akin ang role ko, na-inspire talaga ako. Lahat ng hindi ako kumportableng gawin, gagawin ko. Isinuko ko lahat dahil tiwala ako sa director namin na talaga namang sobrang galing mag-direk.

“Bilang baguhan dito sa ABS-CBN, tinatanaw kong isang malaking utang na loob sa kanila na binibigyan nila ako ng pansin. Dito nag-grow ako as an actress ta-laga. Dito, mas minahal ko ang trabaho ko and I’m very proud na isinama nila ako dito sa In The Name of Love.”

Para naman kay Jake, inspired siyang magtrabaho dahil nakita ng direktora ang kanyang galing sa pag-arte.

“I have probably done something right to be a part of this movie. I’m very blessed na naisama ako sa pelikulang ito.”

Kaya naman pangako nina Aga, Angel at Jake, lahat daw gagawin nila In The Name of Love para sa mga taong nagmamahal sa kanila.

May premiere night pelikula on May 10 sa SM Megamall, with regular showing on May 11, sa lahat ng sinehan, nationwide.
